Fractal fluency
Repeated scale structure may change perceptual processing and stress response
family: Visual cognition
ND-0087 · 2008 · Experimental EEG study
Investigations of human EEG response to viewing fractal patterns
Hagerhall et al. Perception
EEG responses varied with fractal dimension; a mid-range fractal dimension produced distinctive frontal alpha and parietal beta patterns.

Reduction of Physiological Stress Using Fractal Art and Architecture
R. P. Taylor. Leonardo
Mid-range fractal patterns are proposed to be processed efficiently and may reduce physiological stress.

The Potential of Biophilic Fractal Designs to Promote Health and Performance: A Review of Experiments and Applications
Richard P. Taylor. Sustainability
Reviews evidence that mid-complexity fractals can be processed fluently and may support stress reduction and visual performance.

Fractal Fluency: Processing of Fractal Stimuli Across Sight, Sound, and Touch
Taylor et al. Advances in Neurobiology
Extends fractal-fluency ideas across vision, sound and touch and links mid-range complexity to processing ease and stress outcomes.
